What do you notice about the sequences below and how to they relate to what you have learned so far in this unit? •-3,0,3,6,9… •1,4,16,64… Recursive Formula a formula used to find the next term of a sequence when the previous term is known Recursive Formula for Arithmetic Sequence an an1 d a1 ____ Recursive Formula for Geometric Sequence an an1 r a1 _____ Find the next term and write the recursive rule. x 1 2 3 4 n y 3 13 23 33 next term: 43 d 10 an an1 d a1 3, an an1 10 Find the next term and write the recursive rule. x 1 2 3 4 n y 16 40 100 250 next term: 625 40 r 2.5 16 an an1 r a1 16, an 2.5an1 Find the next term and write the recursive rule. x 1 2 3 4 n y 2 14 98 686 next term: 4802 14 r 7 2 an an1 r a1 2, an 7an1 Explicit Rule The explicit rule is used to find any term in the sequence not just the next one Explicit Rule for Arithmetic Sequences an a1 d (n 1) Explicit Rule for Geometric Sequences an a1 r n1 Find the next term and write the explicit rule. x 1 2 3 4 n y 19 13 7 1 d 6 next term: -5 an 19 6(n 1) Write the explicit rule and the recursive rule. a1 = 15 and d = 5 Explicit : an a1 n 1 d Recursive : an an1 d an 15 n 1 5 an 15 5n 5 function rule: an 5n 10 a1 15, an an1 5 Write the explicit rule and the recursive rule. a1 = 4 and r = 0.2 Explicit : an a1 r an 4 0.2 n1 n1 Recursive : an an1 r a1 4, an (0.2)an1 Practice Worksheet Sequences Practice Worksheet #26
